"The highest ideal, the chief ambition of good American Citizens, young or old, is to own their own homes. The home is a man's castle. It should be inviolate from all intrusion. It should be placed beyond the reach of all danger, and of every encroachment, whether of private or public origin. It should be exempt from attachment. Not even the government should be permitted to take a man's home away from him. No nation rises above the condition of its homes. Destroy the home, and by that act you at the same time destroy the nation."
—Sy Foster
